Well, don’t trust the weather forecast, is a moral of that story! I got up in the morning to find a fog so sick that I couldn’t see 20 metres ahead, save enjoy gorgeous views of the whole country. I …

The toe I sprained yesterday is still hurting a lot and makes it hard to walk. And thus, today is another day of just chilling by the seaside. I’m determined to make the most of it. First, St Stefan, with …

at a Ruins/Excavation, Sea
in Albania, Europe, Montenegro
Since I parked by the Rozafa Castle already, I decided to break my No-Albania rule and see it anyway. Good choice – it’s a great spot with amazing views and quite a few tunnels and passages that are open to …

Today was a slow day. I got up before sunrise and spent a lot of time in the van catching up on stuff and writing. After 11, Anti and Michał joined me for a road trip. First, we visited the …

It turns out that the excavation site of the Ancient city of Stibera is just a field. There is a plate with the explanation, but no parking, and you just cross a village road, walk a bit through the field, …

Short Spanish trips, Sun, 23 Aug 20
Jemma and Simon
at a Sea
in Europe, Spain
Our first stop to the day is Cadaqués, a beautiful seaside village that is quite touristy, but very charming. Very unlike Empuriabrava – it’s all hills and little streets, a cute small harbour, a few small beaches. We failed to …

After Figures, we wanted to had to the beach, but decided to visit a seaside town that looked really interesting in the map. Empuriabrava just like like a ribcage of canals. Turns out, it’s a town made up of interchangeable …

Simon
at a City, Sea
in Brazil, South America
To be quite honest, as much as I love traveling alone, I really wish I wasn’t this time. It seems like I’m the only person who’s alone at this carnival, everyone is partying with friends, at least in couples! Everyone …

Wow. Just wow. Remember how I said Brazilians are beautiful? Beach, shorts, thong bikinis, water, chests, butts, muscles, sun, sweat, boobs, skin! Oh my gods! I think I had a sexy overload today. I can’t even. It’s. Yes. So much …

Last night I slept well! Finally! The earplugs I bought yesterday really helped. Got up at a crazy 8:30am and had a wonderfully relaxing morning, not rushing anywhere, eating a glorious tropical fruit breakfast. Charlie and Dee got up after …
